The Cranfield Project – an opportunity for your business
Applying learning to real business issues
At Cranfield School of Management we believe that Logistics and Supply Chain excellence is both a desirable and achievable aspiration for all organisations. Each year we develop over 80 high calibre Logistics and Supply Chain Professionals through our MSc in Logistics and Supply Chain Management. We invite your business to consider the possibility of partnering with one of Europe's leading business schools and achieve new business and supply chain insights by hosting an in-company project for one of our Masters students.
The win/win opportunity
These projects form a vital element of the Cranfield MSc experience giving our students the opportunity to work on a real business issue. In return your organisation will gain access to bright students, leading academics and the latest research insights leading to a low cost, high quality piece of objective research into areas that the organisation may not have time, resource or expertise to address. We work carefully with partner businesses and our students to find projects that deploy leading-edge thinking and analysis to the business goals of the sponsoring organisation. Some of our students have prior work experience and all are looking to apply new insights from the taught part of the Masters programme in a commercial environment.
"As an organisation we are keen to continuously improve our existing operations to enable us to consistently provide the best possible solutions to our customers. Cranfield's record of providing high calibre students backed by a sound support organisation led us to again work with them. The support provided by Cranfield in delivering this project was an invaluable source of independent research which helped to establish industry best practice and inform our own development of this area. This has saved time and improved the quality of our solution in a number of areas." Mark Mardell, Sustainable Procurement Project Manager Marine Division Babcock International Group |
